Only They Who Know You... Poem by Mohammad Younus

Only they who know you...
...can tell your praise;
Those who know not you...
...they only imagine you;
Since you are beyond imagination...
....they imagine you in pictures...
...that are not you;
To your lovers...
...seers, sages, and prophets...
...you talk through mystic speech;
You Yourself Your Qur'an...
...to them secretly teach;
Through the grandeur of Your creation...
...your immeasurable creative power...
...you make them see and appreciate...
...with the divine intellect;
They tell us of You only as much...
...as You to them reveal;
None else, but only You know...
...what your reality must be;
Countless manifestations do you have;
But in all the manifestations...
...You art Ahad (one) and Samad (unique) !
